More
power, more detail and more flexibility are the attributes the most discerning music
makers get when they invest in PMC’s new IB2S-AII and twin cabinet IB2S XBD-AII
reference monitors.

This
new generation of PMC’s prodigious IB2S active range is aimed at professional users
working in stereo and surround formats who require true high-end monitoring – with
both analogue and digital inputs – for reference and mastering applications.

Unlike previous iterations, the IB2S-AII and IB2S XBD-AII feature a
pair of 3U rack mounted electronics per channel that contain cutting edge
DSP-controlled Class-D amplification delivering 2025W for the
single cabinet IB2S-AII and 3225W for the IB2S XBD-AII twin cabinet version.
This increase in power lowers distortion and benefits the monitors with greater
bass definition, attack and extended headroom. Housing the electronics off-board means that
usability is significantly increased, especially when soffit mounting. Once
installed there is no need to access their rear panels as all control of the monitor
can be made via the RJ45 connect table-top remote.

The three-way IB2S-AII
master cabinet can be purchased as a speaker in its own right, or together with
the single-driver XBD bass cabinet to form the IB2S XBD-AII system. Both
systems feature PMC’s hand-built preparatory drivers – a 10-inch
carbon-fibre/Nomex™ piston, a 75mm fabric dome mid, and a 34mm soft-dome
tweeter in each cabinet. Both systems feature proprietary ATL™ (Advanced Transmission Line)
bass-loading technology for that signature precision
bass at all levels.

Both
systems also feature user-adjustable HF and LF shelving filters, ±8dB input
level trim, and an AES3 digital input, as standard. The input sensitivity of
the balanced analogue inputs can also be adjusted from +4dB to +16dB, all of
which can be accessed via an RJ45 connected remote

For
customers with larger rooms, the IB2S XBD-AII is the perfect solutions as the single-driver
XBD bass cabinet incorporated into this system adds +3dB of LF headroom to
deliver phenomenal resolution and an exceptionally smooth response down to 20Hz.
The two cabinets can be mounted in a
vertical or side-by-side format, again increasing their flexibility.

The IB2S-AII and IB2S XBD-AII will
ship from March 2019. For more information, please visit www.pmc‑speakers.com.
